"Haha!"
Waves of carefree and happy laughter came out from the sky above the plaza. It was actually from Lu Chenglong.
"Why is the patriarch laughing? Can I share any good news with you as well? "
It was the Great Clan Elder, Lu Shifeng. Hearing Lu Chenglong's laughter, he frowned, but there was a smile on his face as he looked at Lu Chenglong and said.
"Oh, nothing much. It's just that Sky Dragon mentioned something interesting in his letter, so I couldn't help but laugh a few more times."
Thinking about what Lu Tianlong said in his letter, Lu Chenglong's mood became even better. If he wasn't afraid that he would laugh for too long and the effect would be too bad, he would have to laugh for a few moments before being able to relax.
Interesting thing?
When you cry later, Lu Shifeng retracted his gaze, a sinister look flashing past his eyes.
"Father, what are you so happy about? Let your children see."
Lu Tianfeng was quite curious. What interesting things had his brother Lu Tianlong written in his letter that had caused his father to laugh heartily? He had never seen anything like it ever since he was young.
"No rush, no rush. You'll know soon enough."
Lu Chenglong placed the letter into his pocket. Lu Tianfeng was still young, if he knew about the contents of the letter, he would definitely be happy and colorless, and say some words that would let some of the more scheming people guess that there would be no suspense, and the result would be no excitement.
Lu Qin stood on top of the stone platform with his hands behind his back. His expression was arrogant, and raised his head, looking at the sky, not looking at the rest of the people below the stage.
Everyone below the stage was inferior to him, and in his eyes, they were all existences akin to ants.
In the corner of the stone platform, there was another person standing there. It was a hot day but he was wearing a long sleeve, one of his sleeves hanging down empty, and his face was gloomy, his eyes flickering unsteadily. It was Lu Zhen who had lost one of his hands.
The reason why he stood on the stage, was to personally see Luo Hao being defeated by his older brother Lu Qin, and getting crippled.
As for the people below the stage, they weren't dissatisfied at all. Instead, their eyes were filled with envy, and there were even some infatuated girls crying out loudly, in order to attract Lu Qin's attention.
"I heard that Luo Hao was only at the early fifth level of the soul nourishing stage three months ago, and it caused people to have to admire his courage. He actually dared to accept Lu Qin's challenge."
"Tch, what do you know? Taking the challenge is one thing, not coming to accept the challenge is another thing entirely. That Luo Hao took the challenge and then left, and even though he said that he was going to train, according to my judgement, he used experience as his excuse to avoid being challenged."
A young man analyzed everything clearly, and the surrounding people nodded their heads in agreement.
Only those who were sick would come up to fight, and being defeated was not a matter of seconds. Instead, it was normal for them to not come.
"Cough cough, Clan Head, I wonder what thoughts do you have regarding the upcoming competition."
With a face full of smiles, he turned around and asked Lu Chenglong. His attitude and tone seemed to be very respectful, but it was actually filled with evil intentions.
Among the several elders in the mansion, some of them were frowning slightly, while some of them even revealed a cold smile.
The former was a crowd formed by Lu Yan Chenglong, while the latter was a person who stood on the side of the Great Elder.
Lu Chenglong naturally knew that the other party had ill intentions, but he straightforwardly smiled and said, "Before the competition, we can only say that victory is hard to predict. Great Clan Elder, what do you think?"
Lu Shifeng coldly laughed in his heart. It was hard to predict the outcome of this battle, and you really could put gold on your son-in-law's face, and when there's going to be your father and daughter crying later on, he laughed heartily on the inside, "Patriarch is right. Let's just wait for the final result. "
They had been roasted under the sun for a full four hours, and their mouths were parched and their mouths parched. Their heads were muddled, but Luo Hao, the challenger, was still nowhere to be seen, so regardless of whether they recognized each other or not, they were all filled with dissatisfaction towards Luo Hao.
Lu Wei, who was also standing in the crowd, threw a look at a lackey beside him.
That follower understood and shouted loudly: "That Luo Hao would definitely not dare to come. He wants to be a turtle that hides its head, don't you think so?"
"Yes sir!"
Everyone answered in unison.
This time, it was not Lu Wei who planned all this, but the people who were angry at Luo Hao for making them roast themselves in the sun for such a long time.
The loudness of the voice could be clearly heard by everyone in the arena, including the high-ranking members of the Lu Family who were sitting on the stone platform.
Lu Chenglong was unmoved, he was as steady as Mt. Tai, carefully tasting the fragrant tea, at ease and at ease.
Lu Shifeng naturally knew about these small fries, and was not able to affect Lu Chenglong in the slightest. He turned his eyes and said: "Sit and wait is also idling, I suggest that everyone take out something to bet on, and the loser side will take out the lost thing as a reward to the victor. Patriarch, how about everyone here?"
"I agree."
"I agree."
As soon as Lu Shifeng finished speaking, a few people immediately expressed their support, naturally with Lu Shifeng as their leader.
Victory was in their hands, and there was a one hundred percent chance that they would be able to destroy the lord's arrogance.
The other elders looked at Lu Chenglong, waiting for him to speak.
"This …"
Lu Chenglong pretended to be in a difficult situation as he hesitated.
"Of course, if my suggestion is to make things difficult for the family head, then pretend that this old one has not said anything."
Lu Shifeng added in a considerate manner.
Normally, Lu Chenglong would use his superior techniques to suppress people like them, and he would not even be able to breathe. Even if Lu Chenglong did not want to take out something to gamble, it would be extremely satisfying for him to admit defeat in front of everyone.
"Alright, since everyone is so interested, if we do not participate, it will save everyone the trouble of saying that I am not. Then, according to the Great Elder's intention, what would he take out to make a bet?"
"The Soul Nurturing Pill, right? The children are still at the soul nourishing stage level, they need this most."
Lu Shifeng had already planned for this, and said this without hesitation.
Of course, all of that money was Lu Chenglong's personal money, so Lu Shifeng could not use this matter as an article. He could only use this opportunity to force Lu Chenglong to take out all of the Soul Nurturing Pill s and use them as gambling materials, as for who would win in the end, it was extremely obvious.
Thinking about Lu Chenglong losing face and losing pills, Lu Shifeng became extremely excited. It had been so many years that he could finally vent the anger in his heart.
"Alright, then I'll listen to what the Eldest Elder says."
If he agreed, then he would have to show the spirit of the Patriarch. Even if he lost, he could only grit his teeth and choke on his stomach.
Of course, the last few words were said for Lu Shifeng and the others.
"These are eight bottles of soul pills."
With a thought from Lu Shifeng, eight bottles of Soul Nurturing Pill appeared on the stone table in front of him.
Eight bottles of Soul Nurturing Pill, a total of several millions or tens of millions of crystals. These were similarly bought from the Imperial City by Lu Shifeng personally, and were naturally for his two grandsons, Lu Xinglu.
Lu Qin had returned with Lu Wei this time, and Lu Wei was not present at the place. Instead, he was cultivating in seclusion, while the approaching Sky Fire City, which was held once every three years, was preparing for the competition.
"I have two here."
"I have three here."
Not long later, Lu Shifeng led the group of them and took out a total of fifteen bottles of Soul Nurturing Pill, placing them on an even larger stone table in front of Lu Chenglong.
Lu Chenglong looked at the fifteen additional bottles of pills in front of him, and was extremely satisfied.
"Patriarch, I have two bottles here."
An elder stood up and prepared to personally send the two bottles of Soul Nurturing Pill over.
However, Lu Chenglong lightly waved his hand, signalling that there was no need.
These days, Lu Chenglong was indeed looking for people to buy Soul Nurturing Pill s, but fortunately, he did manage to purchase some. It just so happened to be fifteen bottles, so naturally, he did not need the other elders to purchase any more.
With just a thought, fifteen additional bottles of pills appeared in front of Lu Chenglong. Seeing that Lu Chenglong had taken out so many bottles of Soul Nurturing Pill, Lu Shifeng and the others felt jealous yet uneasy, thinking that it was best to act quickly in order to avoid unnecessary trouble. Otherwise, if Lu Chenglong noticed this, he would have a lot of connections.
Even though she was anxious, she couldn't go out and advise her father against it. Luo Hao hadn't appeared yet, so he didn't know what the situation was like. She actually hoped that Luo Hao wouldn't appear too miserably this time, so as to avoid suffering from physical pain.
"Feng'er, go ahead and see if Luo Hao has returned. If he has, bring him here. It is truly outrageous. I do not mind waiting for a while, but who asked me to be his father-in-law, to wait for such a long time like this among the elders and elders, that is something that should not be done. When that boy returns, he will definitely be closed for a few days as punishment. "
If he still wanted to stay alive in confinement, that would be a dream. Later on, he would have to force Luo Hao to sign the Life and Death Certificate, and that would mean disregarding whether he lived or died.
"Yes."
Lu Tianfeng agreed and quickly walked down the stage towards the Lu Manor's main entrance.
The anxious and worried look on Lu Tianfeng's face was extremely real, it was something that could not be faked. and the others could see this, and they were even more confident that they would not have any burden on the upcoming win. As for the others, that was nothing to them, so they could just take a seat and rest.
"Fuck, that Luo Hao really doesn't dare to come here, all of us are going to be dried up."
"Everyone should leave, Luo Hao is just a coward. The things he promised can only be considered nonsense, he's not a man."
"Who's the one farting over there? You really stink. Who said I'm not coming? Watch how I beat you up until your parents can't recognize you."
A loud voice came from behind the crowd.
Lu Zhen who was on stage heard the commotion and looked over, flames ignited in his eyes.
Who else could it be other than Luo Hao?
